We've arrived at Christmas Eve, and we've arrived at the ultimate destination for this Rewind miniseries, 1990's Home Alone. This is the beginning of the best Christmas movie franchise in existence, even if there are only a small handful of good movies in the bunch.
We tried to do this great movie justice, and along the way we tangent into The Adventures of Pete & Pete, Ren & Stimpy, Don Henley and growing up in the hood.
Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.

Kevin McCallister has been separated from his family for the second year in a row (but really, the movies came out 2 years apart). This time Kevin winds up in a magical land beyond the seven levels of the candy cane forest, past the castle of the abominable snowman, past the sea of swirly, twirly gumdrops and through the Lincoln Tunnel: New York City!
Fortunately Kevin is equipped with a perfect device for a lil stinker, a Talkboy with a voice changer. And of course, because he's the eternally resourceful Kevin McCallister, he is able to use this device to book a suite at the world-renowned Plaza Hotel, New York's most exciting hotel experience. He's also able to record hard evidence on the crimes of the escaped convicts, Harry and Marv, now calling themselves The Sticky Bandits.
This ep is packed with lots of fun 1992 talk, and we get into Disney's The Jungle Book, getting a Sega Genesis for Christmas, hockey, school cafeteria lunches, Sunkist vs. Fanta Orange soda, finding out the truth about the Big Guy in Red, and lots more!
Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.

We couldn't picture watching all 3 of these bad Home Alone sequels, and we couldn't imagine making you listen to 3 episodes worth of that. So we each watched one of them, and sum them up for you in our own way in this one compact ep. You don't have to watch these movies, unless you're some sort of masochist who hates spoilers for irrelevant movies.
Mike watched 2012's Home Alone: The Holiday Heist. It has a haunted house/mobster subplot, a hidden speakeasy, and made Mike wanna drink.
Jake watched what legitimately sounds like the worst idea for a Home Alone movie ever, with 2002's Home Alone 4.
Adam watched 1997's Home Alone 3, and, though I forgot to mention it in the episode, one of the biggest letdowns was that the kid never used the yellow Sega Game Gear he had hanging from his utility belt on the movie poster. False advertising. Deal Breaker. Game over.
We also tangent about sleeping on the floor, cold showers, and The Office.

Welcome to December, welcome to our new Rewind miniseries! We are covering the Home Alone franchise of Christmas movies, as only we do: in reverse! This is 199? Presents Home Alone Rewind.
In this, the first ep of the series, we are discussing 2021's direct-to-streaming-on-Disney-Plus "legacy sequel," Home Sweet Home Alone.
Ellie Kemper and Rob DeLaney are trying to get their hands on a $200,000 ugly little boy to sell to an old lady to save their house. Of course, they know they're talking about a porcelain doll, but the kid, Max, thinks they want to kidnap him. So he creates a plan to defend himself and his McMansion.

The stunning conclusion of our Halloween Rewind miniseries sees us discussing the latest showdown between Laurie Strode and Michael Myers, when suddenly, a new challenger appears!

We set out to Rewind the Halloween franchise, from Halloween Kills to the OG John Carpenter classic. We arrive now at our ultimate destination: Halloween.

We are getting close to the Ends here, folks! Tonight we discussed Halloween II, which came out 3 years after Halloween, but picked up on the exact same Halloween night, of better or for worse.
More kills, more blood, more mayhem and way more hospitals, come listen to more of our discussion about Michael and Loomis raging through Haddonfield!

This week, we leave Michael Myers behind to discuss Halloween III. Audiences at the time weren't properly prepared for a "Halloween" movie without Michael Myers, and it got a terrible reputation. Time has been kind to it though, and taken for what it is, it is finding its audience. Its definitely a fun one to watch with friends at a Halloween party!
The original idea for an anthology series of unrelated Halloween films is a free idea that’s just sitting out there. We still think this needs to happen!

Sure Michael is back, but there’s no Laurie. There’s no involvement from John Carpenter. No JLC. But set your worries aside! This is still a pretty great Halloween movie! Michael is revealed to have survived the events of Halloween 1 & 2, and has been catatonic in a mental hospital for the intervening 10 years. And, fools that they are, they are transferring him somewhere else on the day before Halloween. Donald Pleasance is back as Loomis and he is trying to protect Laurie’s recently orphaned daughter, Jamie, from her maniacal murder Uncle Michael.

Jamie Lloyd is back, and this time she’s played by Danielle Harris, a great actress. But she’s a mute for the first half of the movie. And they do nothing with and then kill off her “sister,” Rachel, who we will get to know better next week in Halloween 4. Rachel’s friend Tina leads a group of crazy Haddonfield teens looking to get their Hallofreek on. Loomis rages around town scaring more people than The Shape himself. Production problems and a tight budget might just doom this one! Judge for yourself, but be reasonable!
I’m never reasonable if I can help it!!

Theatrical Cut, Producer's Cut, whatever. Halloween 6 has PROBLEMS. But at least the mask looks good in this one. And there are some great kills. However, you have to have some interest in the power of Runes to influence evil to truly enjoy The Curse of Michael Myers. Paul Rudd stars in this one, though, and it was his first movie!
So listen as we discuss the film that wraps up the Jamie Lloyd trilogy, despite recasting her with a complete zero, and totally ruining the character's life.

You may not know it from listening to our podcast, since she's appeared in every movie we've covered so far, but H20 was Jamie Lee Curtis' return to the franchise after 17 years. With the resurrection of Laurie Strode, H20 became the first—but not the last—soft reboot in the franchise, discarding Halloween 4-6. This movie has its issues (what is up with that MASK?!), but overall, it is a scary and fun slasher movie that doesn't go over-the-top. There are gratuitous jump scares along the way, but the final showdown between Laurie and Michael Myers is worth the watch!

Just how easy is it to start a gas-powered chainsaw you've never operated before?? Why does Busta Rhymes yelling at Michael Myers like he's his boss not get him murder-stabbed? How did Tyra Banks die? Why did they retcon the ending of H20?
Halloween Resurrection raises a lot of questions! Let's try to answer one or 2, at least.Twitter @199what

Halloween 2018 is a reboot of the franchise that wiped out 9 other films from the timeline. Get used to that kind of thing happening.
Going backwards through these things is about to get real weird.

Knowing our love for (and fear of) all things Michael Myers, friend of the podcast, Jake, told us he had an idea: to cover all of the Halloween films*, but in reverse. We loved the idea of exploring new territory, and the opportunity to break out of the 90s. As this was Jake's brainchild, it's only fitting to invite him along for the ride. Join us as we go from the recent to the original John Carpenter classic, all leading up to October 31st. We're calling it Halloween Rewind, and we're excited to talk about these films in our own backwards way!
Tonight we start with what is currently the most recent film in the franchise, 2021's Halloween Kills. Michael gets his hands bloodier than ever before as he continues his 2018 rampage through Haddonfield. This has got to be the longest Halloween night ever.
How does this film fit into the timeline? How does Michael's mask look? What's on the soundtrack? How many kills does Michael rack up? Does evil die tonight? These are the questions we'll try to answer every episode.

Stick around to the end and you'll also get to hear our thoughts on the Beach Boys, Weezer's latest project, classical music, and movie scores!

We’re back! And we’re playing a fun game! It’s like Heads Up. We each pick a 90s band or musician for the other person to guess. When it’s been revealed, we play their music! Simple as that! Can’t spoil which artists we play, but some good tunes are found herein!
